Changing fuel pressure
Posted: Fri Apr 27, 2018 10:06 am
My injectors tested at about 925cc of flow at 43.5psi. In order to lower my duty cycle, I am installing an adjustable fuel pressure regulator, and would like to increase fuel pressure to 60psi.
Question, what is the best way to compensate for this in my fueling parameters? Can I simply take 925/43.5 = 21.26cc/psi, then multiply 21.26 x 60 = 1275cc and use this as my new injector size? Does increasing fuel pressure affect dead times also?
I know that Smanager will calculate overall trim by entering old and new fuel pressure, but I already use 30% overall trim due to e85 and this is how all my tables are set up. I am afraid that changing overall trim could throw things off.
So which is the preferred method, and what things will be affected differently by changing these two parameters?
Thanks,
